Pros: Loved the people, and the snacks! A great company to do an internship with!

Cons: None I can think of. The pay is fairly good, but maybe not as good as some other companies might provide.

Pros: Good WLB; Internal transfer opportunities.

Cons: No career growth. Pay is low compared to other HFT/tech companies.

Pros: The best learning experiences were in core C++, server-side coding, templates, and JavaScript asynchronous frameworks, etc. Then, out of nowhere, a reorg happens, and you are left with nothing that you built with so much hard work. Good pay, amazing benefits (best in NYC), a pretty building, rarely fires (always puts people on performance plans), very fast learning. The CEO discussed voluntary work that I did with them. They have amazing matches for community involvement (they matched $5,000 to my charity for my voluntary hours).

Cons: Too many reorgs (not just my team but others too). Very competitive; hard to get an "exceeds expectations." Proprietary tech, at times too fast-paced, with a steeper learning curve.
